6 weeks twins SCH and bledding

Looking for similar experiences to find some reasurance.

I came off contraception in September had a period every 4 weeks and last period started 21/12/23. Lasted 5 days.. January I didn't have a period. Tested on 21st which was negative. Tested on 24th which was very faint. Tested on 28th was a positive with darker line. I started to bleed on 27th Feb just spotting so wasnt too worried. Went to EPU and had a scan on 3rd March. The lady doing the ultrasound couldn't see so did an internal one. She said are my dates wrong at all and I was so sure due to my last period date I would be about 10 weeks. (I know your not actually pregnant the first two weeks or so but they usually go by when you last had a period) they advised me it looks like a missed misscarriage because I'm showing only 6 weeks. I then went to another room really upset and had to wait for a report. After I went to another room to give the report to the midwife who asked if my dates could be wrong. I said well I had a negative test in January then explained my periods were usually irregular but we're every 4 weeks since I came off contraception. She said they may not be regular and I may have ovulated mid January and just before coming on actually fell pregnant. She then told me I am having twins which was a massive shock. Then said I have a sub chorionic hematoma next to the sac but that it's not harmful to the pregnancy due to being next to the sac not above it? She also said it looks like a healthy start to a viable pregnancy and that due to the Sub chorionic hematoma (SCH) I will continue to bleed and may have clots and be heavy with cramps too. I said my pregnancy symptoms such as sore breast and tiredness was extreme a few weeks ago and is starting to fade and she said that could be normal aswell. She wanted to be positive and said as of now I am still pregnant and all is well but I then went home and started to bleed a lot more and was up all night with severe cramping. I didn't go to A&E as I could manage it but I didn't sleep at all. Early hours of the morning I passed a huge ball like clot and then since then have continued to bleed a light flow and have some cramping. I am so confused as to whether I just had a misscarriage or it's the SCH. I have to go back next week to see if the pregnancy has progressed. They said in the last scan it was too early to see heart beats but there was two yolks and a sac. I am super nervous and unsure what to think. Other than bledding and cramping I have no sore boobs anymore. I never had nausea with this pregnancy and I thought with twins it would be worse. My tiredness has improved and the only things I notice that are different is constant eye twitching, itchy nipples and pain in my lower back and thighs. Has anyone experienced anything even remotely like this? I also did a test just now which was positive but the line is quite faint. I'm so sure I'm having a misscarriage it's all I can think about it. I just want it to be over so I can try again :(

I don't have much to say other than I'm so sorry ❤️
I had two m/c, it's so hard. Please be gentle to yourself and I wish you all the best.

Thank you. I had bad pains last night and went to A&E to be told my HCG levels are 270 and that my cervix is dilated so they suspect I'm about to misscarry. She checked my cervix and said she can't see it happening at the moment but it will soon. I feel like I'm not ready to accept it so my body isn't bledding and I'm delaying the inevitable. Ive got bad cramps but not passing enough blood for the Dr to say I'm actively having a MC. My levels are low and I know cervix and lack of pregnancy symptoms and active MC symptoms means it's going to happen I just cant let go ☹️

Sending love and prayers @Silverlining42 there's some fb groups on subchorionic that might be able to offer words of advice. I hope it's just the bleed of the hematoma and nothing else 🙏🏼
